Robert A. Heinlein
Certain types of loudmouthism should be a capital offense among decent people.

I'm afraid of coaching, of writer's classes, of writer's magazines, of books on how to write. They give me centipede trouble - you know the yarn about the centipede who was asked how he managed all his feet? He tried to answer, stopped to think about it, and was never able to walk another step.
Robert A. Heinlein

Robert A. Heinlein
We came here for a small, informal meeting. We find you've turned it into a circus. Well, if you're going to have a circus, you've got to have elephants.
Robert A. Heinlein
An invention is something that was impossible up to then that's why governments grant patents.
Robert A. Heinlein
There are two ways of forming an opinion. One is the scientific method the other, the scholastic. To the scientific mind, experimental proof is all-important, and theory is merely a convenience in description, to be junked when it no longer fits. To the academic mind, authority is everything, and facts are junked when they do not fit theory.
Robert A. Heinlein
Take big bites. Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.
Robert A. Heinlein
In a family argument, if it turns out you are right, apologize at once.
Robert A. Heinlein
There ain't no such thing as a free lunch.
Robert A. Heinlein
Certainly the game is rigged. Don't let that stop you if you don't bet you can't win.
